The party’s media department said: “We categorically deny everything the Al-Akhbar newspaper reported in its issue issued today under the heading Geagea to Jumblatt:” I have 15,000 fighters and I am ready to face Hezbollah, “indicating that there is a malicious attempt to demonize the Lebanese Forces and dirty them by spreading malicious rumors and fabricating Fake News about weapons, fighting, clashes and wars. “
The Lebanese daily Al-Akhbar published an article in its issue issued Tuesday, in which it said that “Geagea told the president of the Progressive Socialist Party Walid Jumblatt during a banquet that they gathered at the house of MP Naama Tohme a few days ago, that the confrontation against Hezbollah will continue until the end, adding: I have 15 thousand A fighter, and we can face the party, which has been severely weakened as a result of the situation in Lebanon and in the region. “
The newspaper added that “when Jumblatt warned his interlocutor of the seriousness of what he was saying, Geagea responded by saying: We are stronger today than in the days of Bashir Gemayel (founder of the Forces Party and former President of the Republic), and Hezbollah is weaker than Abu Ammar Yasser Arafat. “
